    Ok, so I ordered a PRS and some Wudtone, gave careful instructions with my order as per below!


    But still I have ended up with Concho Girl (Pink)...strange thou because my order was for Carmine Gypsy and the colour looks suspiciously like Carmine Gypsy...... I smell a rat.....or should that be a Dingo!

    How unfretted does the neck look?

    I'm now, understandably, terrified to look!

    Ok - now I'm crancky!

    But on the bright side I didn't have to pay for the fretless arrangement.....

    Had no idea what to do with the Concho Pink that Evil DingoBass sent me...then I walked outside to mull it over and an idea came to me when I saw this....



    Now it has been said that Wudtone goes a long way and that you can spread it on really thinly, so again I thought to myself. "I wonder if it could....."
    Then I figured, "Why wouldn't I try it to see if it is indeed true..."
    As you can see from the picture below, it's fantastic! And the engine has better tone than ever before. Knowing how excited the owner of the vehicle would be about this I left DB's business card (which was in the envelope with the Concho Pink), so that the owner would know exactly who was responsible for this wonderful product.


    In fact, the local police are impressed too, there were a whole bunch of them admiring the colour. The owner looked really happy too, he was jumping around and gesturing excitedly! DB, you can expect some calls....
